Rifts in the Family: Marriage Under Lies

Page 229

Zhou Hao also knew that Xu Jingqiu was sad, especially from her depressed mood.But Zhou Hao knew that this kind of thing couldn't be delayed, the longer it was delayed, the less good it would be for them.

Until almost nine o'clock in the morning, the two of them drove a car to the bus station in Haishi to pick up customers from Shanghai.The two places are not far apart, so Zhou Hao was not surprised that the other party came by car.

After waiting outside the bus station for less than 10 minutes, they received customers who were coming. However, when Zhou Hao and his party were about to drive away from the bus station, Zhou Hao's eyes accidentally saw him walking from a hotel. The faces of the parents who came out were filled with shock almost instantly.

Mom and Dad, why are you here? !

Chapter 383 The truth is revealed! (one)

Zhou Hao began to wonder if his eyes had made a mistake, but when he repeatedly confirmed that the people who walked out of the hotel were indeed his parents, Zhou Hao quickly smiled apologetically at the customer in the back seat:

"Mr. Chen is really sorry, I saw my parents are not far away, I'll go and have a look first!"

The other party also nodded with a smile. There were three people here. Zhou Hao asked Xu Jingqiu to drive a car a long time ago. He couldn't drive a car with all three customers crowded in the back seat, right?

Zhou Linshan and Zhang Yuping probably couldn't believe that they would meet Zhou Hao here no matter what. Countless people have said the same sentence, many things should happen when they happen, even God may not be able to stop them.

For example, now, Zhou Hao stood in front of Zhou Linshan's old couple and exclaimed, "Mom and Dad, why are you here?"

Zhou Linshan and Zhang Yuping's eyes also widened, and they all cried out inwardly.But now that their son is standing in front of them, they can't say they admit the wrong person.Zhang Yuping moved her mouth in a daze, but she couldn't find a good reason, and Zhou Linshan could only bite the bullet and say, "Why, can't we come!"

"No, Mom and Dad, it's just that you didn't say hello to me in advance when you came to Haishi? I'll pick you up too!" Zhou Hao said awkwardly, but he was still thinking.

It's only nine o'clock in the morning, so even if parents catch the earliest bus, they won't be there until afternoon.He still came out of the hotel, did they come yesterday?

But soon Zhang Yuping thought of an excuse, and said angrily: "We came yesterday, and went to Xingyang Longdong in Haishi with you, Aunt Wu, and the others. Why bother, who knows that your Aunt Wu has lost her temper again, and she just got into a fight with her and is about to go to your place!"

"That's right, it's because your Aunt Wu lost her temper, and we don't bother to go to that dragon cave anymore, so let's go back to your place!" Zhou Linshan also said quickly.

Zhou Hao still didn't quite believe it, but now the customer was still waiting there, so he could only hand over the key to Zhou Linshan, and said awkwardly: "Mom and Dad, I'm also here to pick up the customer, so I'll give you the key. Call back first!"

His parents were not too old, and they could go back by taxi, so Zhou Hao couldn't ignore his clients.

"Well, go and do your business, now that we have the key, we don't need to go to your company." Zhou Linshan said, and Zhou Hao stopped a taxi and let his parents get in the car first.Seeing them heading home, Zhou Hao's heart suddenly became heavy.

My parents came to Haishi without any warning, and they are about to return home. I am afraid that it will not be long before they will know about their divorce from Li Man.

What should I say then?

With something on his mind, Zhou Hao returned to the car to drive the client back to the company.After visiting the company with these clients, and having a meal at noon and sending them off, Zhou Hao and Xu Jingqiu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Zhou Hao, I guess there will be no problem with this order." Seeing that the customer had already left, Xu Jingqiu smiled.

"It shouldn't be a big problem." Zhou Hao responded casually with a heavy heart.

When Xu Jingqiu was at the station, she also saw Zhou Linshan and Zhang Yuping coming. Seeing Zhou Hao like this, she couldn't help reaching out and holding his hand, and said, "Don't worry, your parents will understand you."

"It's okay, I'll tell them. By the way, it's almost time to get off work, how about I take you to find a house first?" Zhou Hao laughed.

In Xu Jingqiu's heart, she really didn't want to move out of Zhou Hao's house. It seemed that she was the one who comforted Zhou Hao these days.But in fact, she thought that it was Zhou Hao who accompanied her through the most difficult period of time.

Without Zhou Hao, Xu Jingqiu, who was penniless and homeless, really didn't know what to do.Invisibly, Zhou Hao may no longer be as simple as a friend in her heart, and living under the same roof has become a spiritual dependence on each other.

It's not that there is no pure friendship in the world, it's just that when a man and a woman live together, going out and going in together, how can it be possible that there is no ambiguity after a long time.What's more, the relationship between them is not really clean.

Zhou Hao once again said that he was looking for a house, Xu Jingqiu felt very sad, but she didn't want to bring any trouble to Zhou Hao, so she nodded with a smile.

But I didn't expect to find a suitable one after searching for a long time, and now it's getting dark.Zhou Hao was having a hard time whether to take Xu Jingqiu back. When the time came, his parents would doubt the relationship between them.

Fortunately, Xu Jingqiu took the initiative to say that she would stay in a hotel tonight, so Zhou Hao had a step down and sent her to the hotel, and then he returned home.

It's just that as soon as they got home, their parents were sitting on the sofa, and their expressions were not very good.

After Zhou Hao changed his shoes, feeling that the atmosphere at home was not very good, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Mom and Dad, have you eaten yet?"

"We're not hungry, Hao, come here, tell mom, are you and Xiaoman separated?" Zhang Yuping's eyes were red, and her voice was choked with sobs.

And Zhou Hao was startled when he heard it, how did his parents know?No, there are no more of her things in the house, only Xu Jingqiu's. That's how they must have found out!

At this moment, Zhou Hao had no way to hide anything anymore, so he could only take a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, Mom and Dad, we really came to an end."

After saying this, Zhou Hao clearly saw his father turn his head away, but his mother suddenly became emotional: "It's all my fault, I'm the one who hurt you! Hao, I'm sorry, Mom!"

Zhou Hao just didn't understand. The divorce between him and Li Man had nothing to do with his mother.But seeing his mother getting excited, he could only force a smile and say, "Mom, this is our decision and has nothing to do with you!"

"I, I..." Zhang Yuping looked at Zhou Hao, she knew her son was comforting her.Especially the way he smiled made Zhang Yuping feel distressed, almost telling the truth.But Zhou Linshan suddenly said:

"Shut up, don't say what you shouldn't say! It doesn't matter if the marriage is divorced, Zhou Hao is still young and he is not afraid that he will not be found!"

"Dad, why are you so angry? Mom really has nothing to do with this matter, it's our own decision!" Zhou Hao didn't want his father to blame his mother, so he helped smooth things over.

But Zhou Linshan and Zhang Yuping felt like mirrors in their hearts at the moment. The divorce between their son and daughter-in-law probably had something to do with Zhao Dongjian!

But now that Zhou Hao has divorced Li Man, they don't know how to tell this matter.

"Okay, don't talk about it anymore. Zhou Hao, Dad asked you whose things belonged to Xiao Nan's room before? That's not Xiao Man's." The old couple knew that there was another person in the family.

Zhou Hao didn't hide anything, and said, "It's a friend of mine. I'll let her stay in a hotel first when you guys come. But don't get me wrong, she and I are just good friends. She...she just came to Haishi to stay in the hotel for a while. That's all."

Hearing what Zhou Hao said, Zhou Linshan didn't ask any more questions, for fear that his wife would lose control of telling about Zhao Dongjian, so he dragged him upstairs.

Watching his parents go upstairs, Zhou Hao felt as if his strength had been taken out of his body.

Just sitting on the sofa, Zhou Hao felt as if he had accomplished something. He stood up and saw that there seemed to be a car invoice on the sofa.

Zhou Hao picked it up subconsciously. Several crumpled tickets probably fell out of his parents' pockets by accident.

He took a look and found that there were a few tickets for his parents to come to Haishi from their hometown yesterday, but immediately he found some very weird tickets.

It's an invoice for the No. 42 bus. Why do parents take the No. 42 bus? !

Chapter 384 The truth is revealed! (two)

42 bus? !

For Zhou Hao who has lived in this city for many years, public transportation is not so unfamiliar.Even before he bought a car, he always took the bus.

It's just that he has never taken the No. 42 bus. He used to work for others, and the place of work was in the urban area.Now that he has a car, he doesn't often take the bus, so he finds that he is not familiar with the route of the No. 42 bus at all.

Could it be that the parents want to take this bus to some tourist attractions?

When I saw my parents in the morning, they said they were traveling in a group.Zhou Hao originally thought that there were a lot of people and it should be a chartered car, but now it seems that it shouldn't be, maybe there are only parents and Aunt Wu.

But Zhou Hao, who has lived in this city for many years, has no impression of the scenic spots that the No. 42 bus passed by.

Subconsciously, Zhou Hao became very interested in the invoices of the No. 42 bus. He was surprised at the sudden arrival of his parents, but Zhou Hao just wanted to understand when these tickets appeared again.

Ever since, he took out his mobile phone and entered the Internet to check the route of the No. 42 bus in Haishi!
